    We usualy end up gutting the elk but we have done it that way too.  During  bow season it is usualy hot out and it's important to get them guts out fast as possible.   Hardly any meat is left on the bones when we are done.    Also for long pack outs we have removed the bones from the quarters too.   All them leg bones are heavy.  Done  with care almost no hair on the meat.    Hair is what makes it shitty and a pain in the ass later when prosessing.

    I was told that hair is what causes that gaminess that everyone complains about. Is this true

     

     

    Actually is the scent glands in the hind legs, just above the knee joint. 

     

     

    in my opinion yes  and yes     hair and also the scent glands  can effect taste.   also timeing    some people hang there meat longer than others.  I prefer to get it in the freezer as fast as possible. In the video above.  hair is flying all over the place and he just cuts the piss and shit tubes when he guts it.  also just stabbing his  dirty knife where ever.     he may be fast but that's not the way i learned.

  3. Im thinking I want to get one.   does anybody have one?    and how do you like it?   pros and cons verses a 223 ak of other tipes.    Im trying to gather up experienced opinions about this rifle.    I would mostly just use it for fun.   

  4. maby put a piece of masking tape over the gap of the saifty lever and see how far the bolt carier is coming back each time. it may not be comeing back far enough to reset the trigger.    friction on the main spring where it coils up and goes inside the carier can cause resistance at the rear most of the cycle.    I put grease on mine and it helped quite a bit.
